17's and flares

I am going to get the wings west avenger kit with the flares....yes yes i no its not a very popular choice but i have the xenon kit and now its time for a change!

My question is will the flares look weird with 17's...will it look like my wheels are more in the body of the car or will the look remain as normal as just having a kit?

I hope that's not confusing, i'm having trouble putting into words what i mean..

18inchpride is an unknown quantity at this point
I think it would still look good!!! I wonder if there is a way to push out your rims a bit, you know what i mean just to make them stick out a bit more. Is your car lowered at all? i think if you had 18's flares would look really really good, but then again, if you see old VW golf's, lots of them have huge flares and they look really tight!!!! So i would say it would look pretty good, i haven't even seen anyone on this site who has fender flares!

no no no u dont want spacers... spacers are very bad... they cause ur steering wheel to shake .. and they ruin ur over all handling. i advise getting a wider rim.. or putting on wider tires.
